Abstract

This seminar summarizes the capabilities of the high accuracy Kevin G.
Hall Laboratory which is located in Purdue’s newly completed Birck
Nanotechnology Center. The seminar is primarily intended for anyone
interested in designing, building and characterizing a high accuracy
room for nanoscience research. The talk will summarize the design
specifications and character-ization the Hall Laboratory. Relevant
issues related to electrical power, vibration isolation, thermal
stability, acoustic isolation, and EMI shielding will be discussed. The
talk will conclude with a few lessons learned.
